Unum Group reported that its board approved a series of amendments to the company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws effective March 4, 2026. The changes update terminology, clarify how shareholder votes are counted, and address procedures for shareholder proposals and director nominations.

The bylaws now treat shareholders participating remotely as present “in person” for voting, define how the vote denominator is calculated, and give the board authority to determine if proposals or nominations were properly brought before a meeting. Additional revisions refine information requirements for director nominees, update indemnification provisions, and remove obsolete or outdated language, including references to old technologies and certain share certificate formalities.
